‘La pícara Justina’: a parodic deformation of Guzmán de Alfarache. (2025). Diseminaciones, 2(4), 127-142. https://revistas.uaq.mx/index.php/diseminaciones/article/view/209
Abstract
This analysis looks at the textual references that link Guzmán de Alfarache of Mateo Alemán with La pícara Justina. The Libro de entretenimiento reproduces aspects, ideas, etc, about the great picaresque novel. These connections at times go beyond mere imitation, and involve a clear burlesque expression to the picaresque squeme and Guzman’s teaching purposes.
